Of course Crutchfield doesn’t do installs, but it’s certainly possible a DIY’er did this who was very meticulous. The crimp connectors they used appeared to be done with a pneumatic crimper, as they were all spaced exactly the same and very consistent. Wire lengths were all the same and the harness was tie wrapped neatly with all the wires laid out in order. It was a thing of beauty.
Crutchfield has a hard time with harnesses for the Bose systems. I’ve found they like to provide the Metra harness that has RCA jacks for the amplifier inputs, which rarely works well, even with a head unit that has 4.0 volt preamp outputs. The other Metra harness that is just speaker wires is the best as the amp ends up getting driven really hard, which it needs to provide the best sound. -D > On Sep 30, 2017, at 12:07 AM, Craig via Mercedes <[email protected]> > wrote: > > On Fri, 29 Sep 2017 21:21:45 -0400 Dan Penoff via Mercedes > <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Did a preliminary survey of the aftermarket Pioneer head unit in the >> car, as the youngest son was getting all foamy looking at it.
